But when we are regarding to open the country The demand for foreign purchases will also increase greatly. The price of the product will soar even more. This is a problem on the other side of the coin. Another point that I would like to be ‘buried’ is to be rigorously dealt with by those who stock up on goods. seize the opportunity to raise the price Help slaughter the monkeys to the chickens. especially with the big ones who farm on people’s backs The landfill has to be completely destroyed,” said Issara.
